A nicely elegant and pure nose speaks of layered aromas of red cherry, raspberry and soft warm earth wisps. The medium-bodied flavors possess a polished mid-palate mouthfeel with solid density though the moderately firm bitter pit fruit finish comes up a bit short.Rich, supple and expressive, this red delivers cherry, plum and spice flavors, with accents of earth and mineral. Dense and well-structured, yet balanced. Long finish. ~92WS
The 2017 Morey-Saint-Denis Les Millandes 1er Cru has typical Morey bouquet of dark berry fruit mixed with graphite, a little distant at first but eventually developing more fruit concentration and hints of violet borrowed from Vosne. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannin. This feels quite saline in the mouth, offering good density and sucrosity and a touch of blood orange mixed with white pepper toward the finish. Very fine. (NM) ~92 VM
